Sen Kennedy was at home and did not feel well-—and had what was later diagnosed as a seizure.

While being trasported to the hospital he had a second seizure.

Although we may disagree with his politics, ethics and morals, he is one of God’s creations.

Keep it clean, kids!

The present news is that Kennedy’s seizure was caused by this tumor, and the type of tumor is one that sends many tentacles, like an octopus, into the brain, and if it is not caught early it is nearly hopeless to eliminate. It doesn’t sound like this was caught early.

Prayers for him ... never thought I would say that, but I do today.

Politics is a part of life, but life isn’t politics. I wish him nothing but the best, and my prayers go out to him and his family.

My Bible says God loves him as much as He loves me. Not my place to judge. Prayers for him and his family.

May God have Mercy on his soul. Prayers to his family, this is tough stuff for anyone to have to deal with.

Well- the docs haven’t said yet which stage the tumor is in- but it just broke on FOX they have characterized the tumor as “inoperable”. Also- as we know, he had surgery 6 months ago and it wasn’t seen at the time- so one assumes this is a fast growing tumor.

Brain tumors are bad.

Here’s wishing for a full recovery and a long and happy retirement for Senator Kennedy.

That is sad——prayers to give him the strength to deal with it.
